Episode 110: NAFTA 2.0—What’s The Bottom Line?
Episode 110: Join me in choking on the following three words: Trump was right. When he criticized the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) as a bad deal during the 2016 campaign, he was telling a truth that resonated for many working people—even though, of course, Trump, who defrauded thousands of people who worked for him and would pile lie after lie about workers and unions, was certainly not going to blow up NAFTA on behalf of working people. But, there is now a draft of NAFTA 2.0. In this episode, I dig deep into what it says and means. Most of the episode is a great conversation between two trade experts who are peoples’ advocates: Lori Wallach, the director of Global Trade Watch, and Celeste Drake, the trade and globalization policy specialist at the AFL-CIO. -- Jonathan Tasini Follow me on Twitter @jonathantasini Sign up for The Working Life Podcast at: www.workinglife.org Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/jonathan.tasini.3
